You can't. But the club needs to be at arms length. I highly doubt any club plays by that rule.

Easts starting cheating when Politis came onboard in the late 70's, there were rumours not long after, below are 3 former internationals who admitted it was going on, even then the league did nothing.
These were 7 years apart, they were cheating then, and are still cheating now

Mushies are not what I would call safe without medical supervision.I'm a bit surprised with this. I thought mushrooms were basically one of the safest drugs you could take. Alcohol is one of the worst.
I had a friend years ago who developed schizophrenia. Alcohol was his drug of choice. I don't think any sort of substance was safe though in his condition.
Scientists Rank 9 Recreational Drugs From Safest to Most Dangerous

I'm on medical marijuana now. They actually ask if you've ever had a pyschotic episode. I didn't tell them I was a Tigers supporter.
As a much younger dude I indulged several times. While I had some great laughs and it was OK overall, the buzz was so variable - from quite mild to super heavy.
The last time I had them I swore I never would again - one of the few things I have diligently stuck to.
True...
All of it may be completely false.
But if it happened in Amsterdam, surely foul play.
Either way, I like Angus.
Hope he's alright and gets it together..
Enjoyed this video that showed some insight to him....
Publishing salaries helping keep the salary cap fair won't help as 3rd party payments are not policed and i can just imagine what side deals are done with businesses that have connections to board members etc.
I think they should have a transfer system in place like what they have in Europe for soccer. So clubs that develop youngsters get rewarded for investing in the development of players. Sure they wont be able to keep all of them but they could still manage to keepna core group of them. The nrl could also reward the clubs with some % of the developed players salary not counting towards the salary cap? (Which there is a form of that already)
Any my 2cents

Yep, but it's microdosing mushrooms, not taking a large dose.

I once took LSD in the cross before
going to 'beach haus' back in the day,
ended up ditching my friend & catching
a train to Cronulla for some reason.
First and last time. Say no to drugs kids

Unless he was trying to get him over as a half back so that he wouldn't feel so bad about signing with Wests Tigers and leaving his Parra-site mates without a # 7.
Such a thoughtful and considerate guy.
The mods are about to change the title of the thread to signing suggestions and drug related rumours.

Good for you, Earl.I'm a bit surprised with this. I thought mushrooms were basically one of the safest drugs you could take. Alcohol is one of the worst.

Too much misinformation around this. Alcohol gets a free pass, despite cannabis being safer, less addictive, less toxic and having a myriad of benefits for a number of conditions.

The data sees this almost exclusively in developing brains (<25 years old).If the gist of what is being posted here about Chrichton is correct I'm very concerned and would be deeply saddened should things turn out badly for him.
I posted previously that it would be pretty unlikely the sole reason for his leave was "having been diagnosed as bipolar". I can't say about the concussion causation, but it's not something that just happens, e.g., you get a check up and your doctor says you have a terminal illness.
Type 1 bipolar would be the only classification that I'd think would be debilitating to the extent he never plays again. Again, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this is possible to suddenly be affected by.
It sounds to me like he has probably always been type 2 bp or Cylclothymia, but just never realised it; It's impossible to know if your highs are any higher than anyone else's, lows likewise because it's always just been how you are.
*come to think of it, isn't Andrew Johns bipolar? Will check... Seems to ring a bell.
Yep:
Andrew Johns speaks openly about his struggles and diagnosis with bipolar disorder
‘I was out of control, my life was chaos’: The cry for help that led to Joey’s bipolar diagnosiswww.foxsports.com.au
Where this does come into effect, *I think*, is his not knowing he was predisposed to extremely adverse effects of certain drugs most others aren't.
Some people can smoke weed their whole lives and be fine. A small percentage could do it a bit and it can mess them up.
He's a young guy who may or may not have taken something everyone else was taking no worries, but it's fkd with his mind.
Whether bipolar or CTE (concussions) is a catalyst, who knows? Either way I doubt it would help.
This truly saddens me and I really hope he is okay. I'm sure he is getting the best care possible, but the thing is broken bones mend; the mind is far more precious and infinitely less understood.

Yep. Happy to (on topic).
To be honest, I'm not sure how they prescribe it. Are you certain about that? Microdosing is all the buzz, but not sure if that's to do with prescribed consumption
